Fashion in a word is an oxymoron. We want to look put together and yet completely effortless. We want to look chic and yet blend in. Putting together an outfit doesn’t have as many rules as it used to. White after labor day is totally acceptable. Brown and black on the same shoe. Grunge has met it’s match with class. I don’t know that I’ve ever been the ‘matchy matchy’ type. At least not since I was able to pick out my own clothes. But lately I’ve seen fabulous two piece sets and matching shoes coming back around. Unfortunately a […]

An area I’ve struggled with in modesty has been workout attire. I am a runner. I try to stay in decent ‘shape’ even amongst a hectic schedule. But as a whole I definitely enjoy the outdoors and getting a good long run in every once in awhile. It’s hard for me to get motivated though.

However, I’m not one of those girls […]

The average height of an American woman according to www.theaveragebody.com in 2014/2015 is 5 foot 4 inches. Most of the ads on tv, pictures in magazines and campaigns via E-mail display women on the upwards of 5’7” to 5’9”. They all have a perfectly proportioned torsos and are as skinny as a rail. So while that maxi dress looks fabulous on a model, the rest of the world (even if you are that tall) is left to wonder if we will have to cut 8 inches off the bottom or if we will be completely swallowed in a large piece […]

We all have our go-to outfit, and if we don’t have a specific outfit, we have a go-to look that we know we can always pull off and feel confident in. I want to share with you some of my favorite pieces that hopefully can help you build a modest, practical, and well rounded wardrobe. Everyone is at different points in their life. Some of you are still in school, some with full time jobs, and some of you are Mom’s. These items are simple and intended to give you a basis for shaping your own style. Make a checklist. […]

Hi there! I am so thankful and overwhelmed at the great response this blog has gotten in just a short amount of time. I’m so encouraged by the amount of women that hold the standard of modesty high and strive to show that in their dress. This blog is intended to make women feel confident in their own skin without showing too much of it off. I want to post outfits for inspiration but I don’t want anyone to feel like they need to go out and purchase a whole new wardrobe. I am going to highly encourage thrift shopping […]
